'˜It is great to be able to give something to our local community'
Family Church took over Havant Park in the town centre with a variety of activities including face painting, human table football, go-karting and a soft play area all for free.
Pastor Steve Carey said: '˜We run this every year for free because we feel this is a time where things can be difficult financially for families and here everything is free and parents can enjoy a day out.

Lucia Vocilka came along to the day with her family and friends.
She said: '˜A friend of mine goes to Family Church and she told me about it so we decided to come down.
I definitely think a big draw for families is that it is free because that is a concern for lots of people these days so that is a great plus.'Â
